Chapter 252 Island landing attack

Under the violent attack of the Ming Navy that suddenly came, the Qing Navy was quickly defeated.

The ten Tong Keshen-style ships of the Qing army and ten Korean Ma Ships were all destroyed and sunk by the Ming army. At least fifty or sixty of the other eighty small boats were sunk, and only twenty or thirty fled to the shore. The navy's soldiers rushed far away like rabbits and soon disappeared into the heavy rain.

The casualties of the Ming warships that launched an attack on them were insignificant. There were only two small ships that surrendered in the former Dongjiang Town. They were hit by the Qing army ships that were in a panic and injured their tails and suffered a little bit of minor injuries.

The Qing navy soldiers who were struggling and crying in the sea and crying for help were not rescued at all. They watched them coldly after struggling on the sea and drowned in the sea.

At this point, the Qing army's navy was completely destroyed, and the entire one-kilometer-wide strait connecting the Korean mainland and Jianghua Island was completely blocked by the Ming army.

Li Xiao, the commander of the Ming army, who was wearing fine steel armor and a bright red flower cloak, stood at the bow of the Shenglong ship like a statue. When he saw the complete destruction of the Qing navy in front of him, he was very satisfied and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The ancient Roman poet Virgil once wrote in his poem: "Nothing is more pleasant than watching the enemy who falls into the water struggle and die in the sea at sunset." Now, Li Xiao's heart also has the same impression.

At this time, he was very grateful that he could arrive at Jianghua Island in time on the Qing army's landing day today.

It is said that being able to arrive at the battlefield smoothly at this critical point that determines the course of the war is the favor of God.

Next to him, the deputy head of the navy, the Dutchman Joseph, also watched the wreckage of the Qing army navy hulls all over the sea with joy. He whistled a light whistle in his mouth and his blue eyes were filled with excitement.

"Mr. Li, it seems that we came in time and did not miss the banquet time. In my opinion, the pre-dinner desserts and aperitifs of this banquet tasted good." Joseph's mouth bent into a pleasant curve, and he said to Li Xiao, who was standing solemnly on the bow of the boat with a smile.

Li Xiao smiled and nodded: "Yes, the taste is very good. However, now the dessert before the meal has been eaten. Next, our army is about to start the main meal."

Afterwards, Li Xiao ordered that the General A and General B of Chifeng Camp immediately landed on Jianghua Island, set up a long gun and shield battle formation, and headed straight towards the Qing army that was attacking Jianghua Island City.

When the spearmen and shield soldiers came ashore, 600 Xuanhu heavy cavalry, 600 flying kites, 600 rampant whistle heavy armored infantry, and the newly formed 900 Manchu cavalry sentries also landed together.

After a large number of Ming cavalry came ashore, they quickly cut and killed more than 100 Qing army auxiliary soldiers who were guarding the baggage. After seizing a large number of Qing army supplies, they immediately divided them into left and right wings to protect both sides of the infantry and force the Qing army to attack the city.

Now, there are only the 1,000 auxiliary soldiers on the ship, who are still on standby on the ship, and all the remaining infantry and cavalry have been sent out.

"Retreat, withdraw quickly, the Ming army that was entering the dog is attacking!"

After seeing the black Ming soldiers on the coast, they began to attack in their own direction. Abatai, who looked miserable, urgently called out the gold and asked all the siege troops to retreat to resist the attacks launched by the Ming army from behind. At the same time, he ordered a large number of Bakash soldiers to rush around the city walls on the south, north and east, and shouted loudly to let the Qing army attacking the city head retreat.

Hearing the sound of Mingjin coming from the back formation on the alpine side, the Qing army on the top of the city could not believe their ears.

What's going on?

Seeing that Jianghua Island City was about to be captured immediately, and seeing that the treasures and women in the city were all about to belong to them, why would a large number of Ming troops suddenly attack in the back formation?

This, how is this possible?!

Seeing that the Qing army was in sight of the city, everyone was filled with resentment, but they had no choice but to curse and climb back along the siege ladder.

Seeing that the Qing army retreated, the Korean defenders who were already suffering heavy casualties on the top of the city and were on the verge of collapse suddenly recovered. However, they were afraid of being beaten by the Qing army, but they did not dare to take the opportunity to chase and kill the retreating Qing army. Instead, they all stood there with staring and panting, watching the Qing army retreat from the city.

Li Renzhan, who was injured in many hands, back and legs, was still fighting to the death. When he saw the Qing army suddenly retreating to the city like a flood receding, he was shocked and suspicious.

Through the heavy rain, he could vaguely see dozens of large ships outside the coastline of Jianghua Island at the end of his eyes, and he could also vaguely see an army lined up in an orderly battle formation and advancing step by step towards the Qing army under the city.

In Li Renzhan's originally dull and frustrated eyes, a spark of hope suddenly began to beating violently.

Reinforcements are coming!

Reinforcements finally arrived!

The reinforcements, who were eager to remember day and night, finally arrived smoothly when Jianghua Island City was about to fall into the enemy!

"Come on the mirror!"

Li Renzhan shouted loudly to the guard who was also stunned.

The guard next to him hurriedly handed him a copper kilometer mirror. Li Renzhan snatched it, stretched his neck to look at the neat army, and looked carefully.

"Haha, the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty came! I knew that a country like the Ming Dynasty would never abandon the country!"

Seeing the many sun and moon flags in the army flying in the rain, Li Renzhan's heart was endless.

"General, the troops of the Daming Heaven have arrived. Our army must cooperate with them and fight out of the city, join forces with them, and attack the Qing throne together?" asked a guard.

Li Renzhan pondered for a moment, then shook his head; "No, at this point our army's battle, the army's strength is exhausted. If we want to leave the city to fight with the Qing army, it is only a difficult time to stalemate. It is better to defend Jianghua Island City firmly."

Li Renzhan paused, wiped the rain all over his face, and laughed and said, "From the general's view, the Ming army that comes from is extremely powerful and has a strict battle formation, so it should be an elite army. Let's take a good look at the Great Ming soldiers of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom and how to eliminate these hateful Tartars."

About one hundred steps away from the east wall of Jianghua Island City, the Qing army had urgently set up its formation. The Ming army, which maintained a strict formation and continued to advance, finally arrived at a place that was only about two hundred steps away from the Qing army after more than two minutes of marching.

When I saw this Ming army with thick iron armor and brilliant swords and guns walking like a neat machine, Abatai, who had been through the battle formation for a long time, keenly felt a sense of danger.

He quickly thought in his heart that this Ming army, full of murderous aura and pressure, should be a rare elite among the Ming army. However, the Ming army has limited elite troops and can leave a deep impression on Abatai. However, there are only a few. So, whose troops will the Ming army come this time?

When the Ming army on the opposite side was closer and closer, Abatai, who had carefully observed through the Qianli Milestone, saw the Japanese flag roaring with tigers and the many battles of Li flags, he finally knew which Ming army was coming to rescue this Jianghua Island City.

Damn, Li Xiao, I will be with you, my damn enemy, so my path is so narrow!

Abatai, who put down the Qianli Mile Mile Mile, had his teeth clattered, and then ordered the entire army to prepare for battle and fight to the death with the Ming army coming in front of him.

Abatai quickly evaluated the combat power of both sides.

After the 9,000 troops under Abatai were now killed and injured by about 300 Qing troops after this siege, which was fine. However, because this time, it was mainly for siege to attack the city, there were fewer cavalry in the Qing army, only more than 600, of which half were Manchu cavalry and Mongolian cavalry, and the remaining one was more than 8,000, all of which were infantry.

As the Ming army approached, Abatai saw that the Ming army's infantry had about 3,000 shield soldiers and more than 6,000 spearmen, wearing thick three-layer armor, all covered in armor, with only two eyes exposed, and 600 heavy armored infantry like wild mecha beasts.

The Ming army's cavalry were about 600 heavy cavalry with men and horses, 600 light cavalry wearing cotton armor, and there were about 900 cavalry with pure white Zhengbai Banner Manchu armor.

The appearance of this Manzhou cavalry, full of Zhengbai Banner armor, was like a sharp knife, deeply hurting Abatai's heart.

He suddenly thought that this must be the Manchu soldiers and horses of the Zhengbai Banner who followed Irgen Jueluo Mountain to march to Jinzhou that day. Unexpectedly, they thought they had all died in battle, but they had not seen each other for the past two years. These Qing Dynasty elite soldiers had defected to Li Xiao and fought for this humble and cunning Han dog.

Abatai immediately remembered the great shame of watching Li Xiaojun shooting thunder at the top of Jintang City on the Tangquan River on Xuanfu North Road that day, killing more than a thousand soldiers.

In addition, Li Xiao, the thief, later pretended to be the Qing army, captured Fangshan County, shot and killed the Qing army commander Yang Guli, and used deception to capture thousands of elite troops from the Zhenghuang Banner, owing a lot of blood debts to the Qing Dynasty.

Li Xiao’s hands were covered with the blood of the Qing soldiers, and his official titles were exchanged for the heads of the loyal and brave Qing soldiers!

"Li Xiao, who is in the dog, I will definitely chop your head as a urinary so that I can relieve my hatred!"

Abatai used up all the dirty words in his heart, and scolded Li Xiao so hard that he was bleeding.

In the vast rain, the Ming and Qing dynasties slowly moved the battle formation, and finally reached a distance of only more than 80 steps left, and stood there separately.

In such heavy rain, all the muskets and bows were invalid. Abatai did not have to carry the firearms of the Huo Ming Army, and Li Xiao did not have to worry about the Qing army being able to shoot arrows, so both sides could move to a distance that was only so close to each other.

A Ming army general with a typical Manchu face rode a white horse and slowly rode his horse to the Ming army formation, and then shouted loudly into the Qing army formation in Manchu.

"Who is the general of the Qing army? Come out quickly to answer."

Seeing this person shaking his head and shouting immediately, Abatai's eyes were filled with anger.

Damn, isn’t this guy the Karamu under Yangguli?

Unexpectedly, as a close subordinate of Yangguli, this person, who had not died in the battle, had betrayed his benefactor and surrendered to the enemy for honor. His real sin was unforgivable!

Abatai was angry from his heart. He quickly rode his horse to the front of the formation. The whip pointed at Kalamu from afar and cursed loudly: "Kalmu! You, a person who betrayed the Qing Dynasty and sold your owners and asked for honor, have the face to come to the formation to shout. If it weren't for heavy rain in the world, the bow and arrow must not be used. I will definitely shoot you, a shameless slave, to death with one arrow!"

Hearing Abatai's thunderstorm, Kalamu was shocked and his face suddenly felt inexplicably hot. After seeing clearly that the Qing army commander on the opposite side was Abatai, he coughed twice, squeezed out a smile on his face and said, "Oh, it turns out that it is Rao Yubeile's commander coming. I, Kalamu, have not recognized it at first glance."

Before Abatai replied, Nakalamu's face changed and he was very harsh. He shouted loudly: "Abatai! Listen, your navy is now destroyed, and you are all in a jar. My Tiger Army has many troops and strong combat power. It is easy to destroy you and others. I advise you to recognize the situation as soon as possible and surrender to the Ming Dynasty. My Governor Li can spare you a life. If you don't follow, resist the heavenly soldiers, you will definitely kill them on the spot and cut them into pieces!"

Hearing Kalamu's words, Abatai was almost furious. His beard shook and he shouted loudly: "Kalmu, you shameless dog slave, don't speak loudly here! I want to persuade the generals to surrender, which is really a dream! Today, I, Abatai, will definitely compete with you, the Ming dogs, and avenge this great revenge for the Qing soldiers who died that day!"

Abatai swung his sword, pointed his finger in front of the knife, shouted loudly, "You have heard that all the warriors of the Qing Dynasty have good rewards. If you can kill the Ming army, you will be rewarded with great rewards. If you can kill Li Xiao, you will be granted the title of king and prince!"

"Kill!"

"Run!"

After hearing the words of the chief general, the Qing army suddenly felt like they were injected with chicken blood. 8,000 infantrymen waved their swords and shouted loudly, rushing towards the gun and shield battle formations of the Tiger Army lined up straight battle formations on the opposite side.

At this time, Kala Muye had retreated to the original formation. Li Xiao from the back formation quickly played the flag verb and beat the war drums, allowing the Ming army to hedge against each other.

The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road!

In this pure cold weapon battle, in addition to armor and weapons and equipment, the courage, determination, training degree, and cooperation between the enemy and us are the fundamental reasons for winning the formation battle.

In these aspects, Li Xiao had sufficient confidence that the army, armor and weapons on the side were much more elite than the Qing army on the other side. After fighting with the Qing army many times and winning, psychological factors such as confidence and courage were significantly higher than those of the Qing army.

Come on, Abatai, open your eyes and see, the Han army will completely defeat you in pure cold weapons combat, so that you can experience the pride and strength of the Han people!

Looking from the world, under the rain, on the gentle and green grass, two black straight lines with almost equal lengths hit each other with a dull sound.

The Ming and Qing dynasties quickly strangled into a group.

The Tiger Army shield soldiers, who were straight in a row, could not see the head or the tail, collided with the Qing army infantry rushing towards him.

Dozens of Qing army infantry could not dodge and were immediately pierced by the two rows of fine steel spikes on the large shield, and quickly cut off their breath. The Qing army that died on the shield was like frogs strung together.

"Bang!"

The row of shield soldiers in the middle succeeded and immediately laid the shield on the ground to form a large shield defense line. At the same time, a long row of spearmen behind immediately thrust the three-edged steel 4-meter spear that had already been full of hatred and strength in their hands, and used all their strength to slash the Qing army infantry that could not hold back. Almost in an instant, the 4-meter spears that had stabbed with all their strength, like flying poisonous dragons, flew out from above the shield, and in an instant, more than 20 Qing soldiers who were unable to hide, immediately spewed out blood on their faces, necks, or chests, and fell to the ground and died.
